March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.

In Wales this proverb is applied to the month of April more often than March, especially in the borders.

In the 19th century it was used as a prediction contingent on a year's early March weather:If March comes in like a lion, it will go out like a lamb.

-but it was recognized to not work well.

The reverse is true as well. If the weather turns nice a bit earlier than usual, it is said to come in like a lamb, so it may be expected to go out like a lion.

You will need an expert Meteorologist to give the details of why the weather pattern exists. However, the origin of the poem recognizes and illustrates the probability there will be higher winds in early March declining to calmer winds at the end of March. h

"In like a lamb, out like a lion" refers to the changeable weather in the month of March. It means that if the weather is calm at the beginning of March, it will be stormy toward the end. "In like a lion, out like a lamb" means the same, but opposite: a stormy beginning of March usually portends a calm finish.
